It is provided by sub-section (6) that a shop may be exempted
from the provisions of sub-section (2) if there is in force a
certificate exempting the shop therefrom granted by the
Borough Council, whose duty it is to enforce the necessary
provisions.
A certificate may be granted by the Borough Council if they
are satisfied that by reason of restricted accommodation or
other such circumstances it is not practicable to provide such
accommodation on the premises, and that alternative arrangements
are conveniently available.
During the year one such certificate was issued.
In one case a certificate of exemption, which had previously
been issued, was withdrawn.
The Borough Council is also responsible for securing
compliance with the provisions regarding heating and
ventilation.
